While an old episode of Hard Knocks featuring former Bengals quarterback Carson Palmer complaining about the smell of his hand after putting it under center plays on NFL Network, the Bengals have announced an agreement with a guy who could end up worrying about similar hygiene issues.

Offensive lineman Tanner Hawkinson, a fifth-round draft choice, has agreed to terms. Listed as a guard, he can play all three positions on the line.
